Hi -
I would like to install a Contant Management System called Exponent from www.sourceforge.net.
The installation instructions state that I should unpack the software on my Linux server using this command:
tar -xzvpf exponent.tar.gz
...with the -p option being important because it preserves the file permissions. With CPanel and it's File Manager I was able to find the link to upack the .tar file but I was unable to locate how to specify .tar options.
Where do I specify .tar options?
Alternatively, I tried using WinSCP3* in order to run a shell to execute the command directly but was unable to connect with the TCH server.
Thanks for your help!
